Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System

Chapter 886: Chapter 374: Unexpected Surprise, Unique Treasure - Thought-Making Stone

After reporting on the development status of various projects in Weilu City, Bain continued.

"Your Majesty, a rift to the Undead Plane has appeared in the north of the Swamp... Undead are pouring out day and night."

"Although no high-tier undead have appeared yet, the hidden dangers are significant."

The Undead Plane?

Lear’s eyes became serious.

He hadn’t paid attention to the Undead Plane for a while; the Flesh Butcher, a divine life entity, was still controlling the City of Death there.

Not to mention the Dragon of Death, which was corrupted from the Black Dragon Egg...

He wondered how the God’s internal war in the Undead Plane was progressing now.

"I’ll go there later..."

"Any other issues?"

"The Master of Heart Eating has discovered our deception. A week ago, they sent a demon leader to discuss with the Swamp Boggart whether they could have those who already believe in him... He offered to gift the Demon Army that has entered the Main Plane to Weilu City."

Bain’s expression was somewhat subtle as he said this.

Who would’ve thought that an Abyss Duke, a terrifying evil existence, would work diligently for Weilu City for more than half a year?

Lear found the thought of the Master of Heart Eating being deceived by the Swamp Boggart for so long amusing.

The guy just realized it now?

He chuckled.

"No matter, send those believers to the Abyss, and let the Demon Army continue to guard the Magic Mercury Ore Vein."

Bain nodded.

"Your Majesty, we’ve captured many inferior races recently, their numbers exceeding one hundred thousand. They’ve all been turned into followers of the Master of Heart Eating..."

"No big deal."

Most of those given to the Master of Heart Eating were unmanageable, naturally savage, low-level, and worthless races such as Goblins, Half-Ratmen, and Half-Blooded Pigs, etc.

He was not interested in confronting an Abyssal Evil God head-on now; in the Abyss, evil gods could not be completely eradicated.

Bain immediately sent someone to relay the message to the Demon Conductor.

It wasn’t long before the Demon Conductor guided the Master of Heart Eating to open a spatial rift in the Swamp Divine Kingdom, taking all these followers back.

Lear, on the other hand, acquired ownership of 5 battalions of Level 18 Demonic Army without loss.

This deal was profitable no matter how he looked at it.

In the end, when the Master of Heart Eating showed up, his twisted, half-revealed face showed a complicated expression as he watched the believers enter the Abyss, then he closed the spatial rift without a word.

Though he had been deceived, the Power of Faith from the believers was genuinely real and undeniable.

He ended up gaining tens of thousands of believers... and the cost was far less than anticipated.

He even considered whether to continue collaborating with the Swamp to gain more followers...

As for losing face, that was never an issue in the Abyss.

To gain powerful strength, he was willing to kneel and lick the toes of a more powerful existence at any cost.

However, he ultimately dispelled this thought upon recognizing that it was the one who followed the Goddess of Misfortune in slaughtering the Tyrant Monarch... He didn’t want to relive the fate of the Tyrant Monarch.

Putting it bluntly, his power was far from matching that controlled by the Tyrant Monarch.

After resolving this matter, Lear didn’t dwell much on it; once he himself became powerful, the original hidden dangers and troubles were no longer issues.

If the other party was wise, then good; if not, he would let Kalanis enter the Abyss to show them what was wise.

There was no need for etiquette when dealing with an evil god.

Once the busywork was over, the group returned to the City Hall, where months of sleep had delayed many matters, making it hard to deal with everything quickly.

During their exchange, a figure clad in golden armor walked into the office.

Everyone inside immediately turned their heads, and upon recognizing the figure, they respectfully stood up to pay their respects.

"Your Majesty Kalanis..."

Kalanis, holding a war saber, strode inside, her gaze softening at the sight of Lear smiling warmly at her from the doorway.

"Master..."

She was delighted to see that Master had grown even stronger over these months.

Lear waved her to sit in the seat beside him.

After Kalanis sat, the others inside dared to sit down as well.

In front of Lear, Kalanis was the most loyal and humble subordinate, but in the eyes of outsiders, Kalanis was one of the subordinate gods in the Swamp Pantheon.

Her statue was placed next to Lear’s divine statue on the left.

When facing divine spirits, no level of respect was too much.

Once seated, Kalanis immediately spoke.

"Master, the God of Lust, Dorol, has infiltrated Weilu City for nearly three months now... I’ve been monitoring them all the while."

The God of Lust?

Lear’s eyes flickered.

The intelligence had previously suggested that the Abyssal Evil God had their eyes on the Swamp Boggart, planning to infiltrate the swamp and abduct it.

Later, due to the war with the Wild Pantheon, the entity went into a state of observation.

Before entering seclusion, he emphasized this matter, telling Kalanis to be cautious.

"What is the current situation?"

"The God of Lust has attached a thread of divinity to that human girl, and killing her now would cause only negligible harm... I am still searching for a method to completely eliminate the potential threat."

Lear nodded thoughtfully.

"Has the other party shown intense malice?"

"Not really, she has only controlled the neighboring residences and hasn’t performed any hostile actions."

After Kalanis finished answering, just as Lear was about to speak, the intelligence system suddenly refreshed at this moment.

[The God of Lust, Dorol, has infiltrated Weilu City and plans to seize the Swamp Boggart, but hesitates due to the power of the Goddess of Misfortune. Additional intelligence obtained: The God of Lust possesses a unique treasure—the Mental Creation Gem, capable of enhancing and promoting units as desired, increasing their level up to a maximum of Level 19.]
